  hello.
  I just doubting when searching for themes,
  I found it but it said it needs to be upload before using it.
  the things is i couldn’t find a way to follow the instructions.
  Is it concern with .org and .com differences?

  “Just log into to your install of wordpress and go to: “appearance > themes > add new theme > upload theme”

  Then browse to the downloaded zip file and install it. Once installed simply activate it.”

  Thank you.

  Yes, we cannot add themes at wordpress.COM, we are limited to the themes found in the dashboard under appearance > themes. Themes found on the internet are for self-hosted wordpress blogs using the software from wordpress.ORG.
